Bremer / Mc Coy | Cats & Breakkies | Jazzfestival Freiburg

With 400,000 monthly listeners, Bremer/McCoy have defied all odds to create their own cosmos in a noisy era. Fittingly, "Kosmos" is the title of the duo's sixth album. Here, they aim to convey a worldview based on deep connection and a sense of freedom. The raw material includes tracks that have been simmering away for 15 years, as well as pieces that were created in an intense moment within 15 minutes.

Cats & Breakkies are four young Berliners with jazz in their hearts and techno in their genes. In a classic band line-up - electric guitar, bass, drums, keys - they rock an instrumental DJ live set on stages, floors and festivals at any time. Always danceable, with the courage to play elegiac melodies, opulent breaks and lush pads, they impress above all with the precision in the build-up of tension and the sonic breadth of their arrangements. Following the release of their debut album organic electro in 2015, produced in collaboration with David August, they were nominated for the "Bremer Jazzpreis 2016" in the "Jazz & Electronics" category in 2016, followed by numerous appearances at festivals and clubs, including the Kantine am Berghain, the Tallinn Music Festival and the Berlistanbul Festival.
